Mankins won't holdout for new contract
Quote:
Shalise Manza Young of the Providence Journal reports Logan Mankins has not missed so much as a practice over his four-season career with the New England Patriots, and he has no plans on missing one now.
the five-year contract he signed as a rookie will expire at the end of the coming season, and Mankins and New England haven’t agreed to a contract extension.
But while teammate Vince Wilfork has been absent from organized team activities in recent weeks as a form of protest over his contract status, Mankins has been at every one, just as he always has.
“I signed a contract. I was the one who signed it, so I feel obligated to be here and practicing,” the 27-year-old California native said Monday morning before the Patriots’ Charitable Foundation annual golf tournament at The International. “Until I don’t have a contract, I’m here to play.”
